It hardly looks like I need to write a recommendation for these wonderful and talented professionals, but I believe I will. I have known the staff at Answers For Elders for over 20 years and in that time, I have watched them grow in this profession in an extremely intelligent, empathetic and professional way. At their core is a sincere desire to help their fellow man every day. They will drop whatever they are doing to "fix" the problem. Recently I lost a dear lifelong foster sister. During her last few weeks of life, we had a hospice program for her in her home. The experience was very frustrating for the family and myself. I called on Answers For Elders for guidance and with a wave of their magical, "all knowing" wands, they took care of all of it and my 'sister' passed with all her needs at end of life having been met. For the family, it was so comforting, that accepting the passing of their Mom was met with grace, understanding and peace. I shall always be grateful for the staff at Answers For Elders who just stopped everything to right the wrong.

When I first realized that my mother was no longer going to be able to live independently, I felt a tremendous amount of stress and concern. The challenges ahead seemed daunting considering my mother was not cooperative at all. Between her resistance and the onset of dementia I was at a loss as to even where to begin the process of finding my mother a safe and suitable living environment. The team at Answers For Elders became a rock that I could depend on not only in dealing with the overly complicated health care system but for the moral support and encouragement that was so greatly appreciated. There were days that it felt like nothing was going to work out and my mother would spend her last years being swept up in the “system”. The staff at Answers For Elders gave me constant reassurance and they were dedicated to my mother’s well-being. This gave my family the confidence to believe it would turn out well. In spite of many challenges and unforeseen difficulties things worked out just as they had said it would. Their professionalism and passion for ensuring that seniors are treated with dignity and compassion make Answers For Elders a true credit to their profession. I would recommend Answers For Elders to anyone that has a senior who needs some help, if you want your loved one to receive the very best care available then you need to use the staff at Answers For Elders as your advocates.

I strongly recommend Answers for Elders, LLC as a resource for geriatric patients and their family members. The staff has a wide ranging breadth of knowledge and experience pertaining to the care of the elderly. This will be an invaluable resource to you or your loved one. I turned to Answers For Elders for assistance in trying to get help for my mother who was experiencing mounting health problems and functional changes. These were of great concern to our family. Of particular concern was the inadequate pain management that my mother was receiving. The staff at Answers For Elders were able to listen to our concerns and quickly able to assess what was needed. They provided linkage for us to a healthcare provider knowledgeable with geriatric pain management who were able to quickly meet with my mother to assess her needs and to modify her treatment plan. This resulted in a positive change in my mother's status at the time and provided our family with a great relief from stress/worry. At the time I was very stressed out and living out of state from where my mother was. The Answers For Elders were able to take the information provided, assess the situation and "run with it" to determine a good solution to the problem. They also had attentive follow-up to ensure that the plans had worked out well and was ready for further assistance if the need arrived. It gave us peace of mind we that we had at staff so knowledgeable on these matters "in our corner". Their respect for the autonomy and dignity of the elderly parent was strong. They were also able to understand the sometimes-difficult plight/concerns of the children/family members of a parent who is experiencing a variety of mounting medical/psychological or physical problems that are limiting their functional capacity. I have utilized Answers For Elders advice and help recently when addressing a concern that my father recently had. As always, they were there with direct, honest and caring support/advice on how I might approach the situation. I won't hesitate to access their support again in the future if the need arises. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience in the field of mental health. I have been working for the last several years in a medical center setting providing therapy, psychological/neuropsychological assessment and consultation to a wide range of patients and healthcare professionals. My work involves interface with a variety of patient populations, their families and health professionals. Yet with this experience I still needed an advocate and resource in my corner to help me address the concerns we had regarding my mother's needs. Answers For Elders was right there for us when we needed them. They will be there for you also in your time of need. Don't hesitate to access Answers for Elders, LLC to seek out the help of their wonderful staff.

You probably don’t want to think that you will need a service like the one provided by Answers For Elders-- I know that I didn’t. Unfortunately, with little notice, I found myself in the midst of a healthcare crisis with a loved one. I suddenly realized that I had no idea how to navigate the healthcare system in order to find my loved one the care he needed. I didn’t even know where to look or what to look for. Honestly, the emotions surrounding my loved ones healthcare crisis were pretty overwhelming. The staff from Answers For Elders were angels! They have so much experience with these situations and know exactly what to do, who to call, and what to say help us all cope. They were compassionate about our situation and quick to find solutions. I wholeheartedly recommend the services of Answers For Elders. This is a service that everyone should know about.

How can I thank the staff at Answers For Elders enough for being the voices we so desperately needed and for providing us with the answers to questions that we so desperately needed to know! I have known them for over 25 years from when their President Barbara Cannon was the director at the nursing home facility that my paternal grandmother was at for many years and now her company has helped us navigate this confusing arena yet again with my maternal grandmother who has been dealing with many hospitalizations and has been moved in and out of skilled nursing and assisted living facilities and now needs long term nursing home care. There are so many issues, and laws and questions and Answers For Elders is the ONE TO HELP!

Thanks so much to the staff at Answers For Elders for sharing your knowledge, resources and expertise with me. Your sincerity and genuine concern was clearly evident in our conversation. Your information and your generosity of time will be invaluable to my friend in need. Thanks so much!

I have had the good fortune of knowing and working closely with Answers For Elders for the past several years. They have such compassion for the elderly and making sure their needs are met. They are true professionals with a pure passion for helping and assisting the elderly and their families. They assist in the sometimes-daunting task of unraveling the question, "what now"? The staff at Answers For Elders have many years of experience in this complicated health care system and can get the answers you need to navigate it. They are true professionals with a very strong ethic and are responsive to their clients' needs. If anyone can find the right answers for elders, they will.

Answers For Elders provided my family with invaluable assistance when my father's health began to decline. We knew we needed a plan for both of our parents, but we really didn't know where to begin. The staff at AFE helped us navigate the very complicated area of elder care services. They provided excellent guidance and advice in a calm, caring and professional manner. We're very grateful to them for helping to make a very difficult time less stressful for all of us.

Answers For Elders helped guide our family through the difficult and delicate decision-making process of finding appropriate services for our mother, who had Alzheimer's Disease. It was invaluable to have a team as knowledgeable as them to guide us from that point in our mother’s condition to her end-of-life care. They were extremely knowledgeable, resourceful and compassionate, and acted as tireless advocates for our mother and us. They made home visits, connected us with financial and legal specialists, researched and attended multiple meetings to help us find the best assisted-living and, later, nursing-home resources. They also attended family/staff care meetings. Most families "do not know what they do not know," so need an outside consultant who is level, calm and professional, helping them manage the logistics and arrive at appropriate decisions while being mindful of what a family’s emotional responses may be telling them. Answers For Elders was the team for us, and we’re very grateful.

Answers For Elders was an invaluable asset to me, and my two brothers, during our mother's time in the nursing facilities after her stroke. They walked us through the ever complex and fast moving world of Medicare. The staff intervened in a few complicated negotiations with the skilled nursing facility and offered much valuable advice and many welcome suggestions. My brothers and I will be eternally grateful for their guidance through a very difficult time. Thanks

 I enjoyed your presentation today at the Hingham Senior Center. I will share your material with my SHINE Director hoping that we can invite Answers For Elders to speak to our volunteers someday. Many thanks, Don Mullen

When my family was in crisis and had no idea of where to turn, who to call or what to do involving my elderly mother in law, Answers For Elders gave us timely, compassionate and helpful guidance. They became diligent, assertive, highly competent, formidable advocates to the government agencies and anyone else that could help and protect my mother-in-law. The staff kept us informed, and they are the kindest, most compassionate people you may ever meet in your life. Their combination of encyclopedic knowledge of how to care for the elderly or children, where to turn for help, what assistance is out there, and exactly what to do and how is surpassed only by their ability to make you feel like everything is going to be okay. If you have called everyone, tried everything, and have spent your last bit of energy trying to figure out what to do, the end of the road has the sight of the staff of Answers For Elders warm, smiling faces, and the sound of their reassuring, expert words at the end of it. Call AFE and their wonderful colleagues at Answers for Elders now – don’t spend another day as a well-intended, uninformed loved one who wants to help but does not have the knowledge or experience to do it.
